General Mechanic & AC Auto Repair in Van Nuys

It was my first time here and I was highly satisfied with Javier's work. He was very thorough and kind to me. Would recommend if you need some work done!

Javier is the only mechanic that I trust. He is knowledgeable, honest about repair options, and always goes above and beyond to take care of us. I’m not a car guy, and having someone you know that you can trust is huge. Thanks for all your help, Javier! You’re the best!!!

I Have been going to this shop for the last 12 years, Javier demonstrates extensive knowledge and skills while working on my vehicles. He is quick to diagnose the issue, explain the repair process in detail, and provided a fair and transparent estimate. The repairs are usually completed promptly, and my car stays running smoothly, thanks to his expertise.

Upon recommendation from a colleague of my wife, I brought my 2018 Odyssey to your establishment due to issues with overheating, particularly during idle or slow traffic. Upon consultation with Javier, he promptly identified the root cause as a malfunctioning cooling fan and condenser fan. Javier efficiently procured the necessary parts and completed the repairs within a commendable timeframe after I dropped off my vehicle. Additionally, I requested the replacement of both front and rear brake pads, as well as the repair of a cracked intake flow tube, which Javier skillfully attended to. I am thoroughly satisfied with the quality of workmanship and the amiable customer service extended by Javier. Rest assured, I intend to return for future servicing of my other vehicles.

There are only two kinds of mechanic- Javier’s General Mechanic and others. Javier’s does an exceptional job that would make you want to come back if future car troubles arise. He is a honest man with lots of integrity who is looking to help its clients unlike other mechanics that want to extort money from you. Highly recommend this gentleman
